| Description | In this paper, a review of spectroscopic evidence for colliding wind effects in WR+O binaries is presented with a particular emphasis on variability at ultraviolet wavelengths. In the optical, evidence for colliding winds comes from extra emission formed in the region of shocked gas and superimposed on the strong emission lines formed in the WR wind. At ultraviolet wavelengths, we observe the consequences of the fact that between the two stars the winds are prevented from reaching their terminal velocity because of the wind-wind interaction. |
